Rodney Priestley
https://www.linkedin.com/in/rodney-priestley-371b1a83/
Rodney Priestley is the dean of the graduate school at Princeton University and the Pomeroy and Betty Perry Smith Professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering. He is a leading researcher in the area of complex materials and processing, and served as Princeton University's inaugural vice dean for innovation from 2020-22. The vice dean for innovation provides academic leadership for innovation and entrepreneurship activities across campus.
Priestley has published nearly 100 articles, edited a book, and is co-inventor on four patent-pending technologies in the area of drug-delivery and polymer colloids, substances that make up gels and emulsions. His research group is focused on understanding how materials that undergo changes in their properties and join together when confined in tiny spaces open new possibilities for a vast range of novel applications, including drug delivery, designer colloids and sustainable manufacturing. Priestley is engaged in three industry-university research collaborations in the areas of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics as well as polymer nanocomposite design, and is the co-founder of two companies that are working to translate University intellectual property into technologies or products.
